Watch Your Step

When you go to a local business such as a grocery store or department store, the owners of that store have a duty to make sure the premises is safe for you to carry out your shopping without the risk of injury.  The law in Texas is clear, premises owners have to regularly inspect their location, correct any unsafe conditions, or warn of any unsafe conditions. Sometimes the dangers can be found in more than just substances on the floor.  Often, shoppers are injured by falling merchandise or improperly built displays.  If their failure to do so results in an injury to one of their customers, the store owners could be responsible for the damages suffered by that customer.  The story about the man in Katy
